Flite and different voices

Yes! That should do it.  In the flite sources, there is as a default
two voices: the cmu_us_kal that you are using and cmu_us_kal16 for the
16-bit voice.  I will try changing this and see what the dispatcher
will sound like.  The next easiest thing might perhaps be to add a
configure option that one could use to select flite voice but that
would still be a compile time option.

My version of flite is 1.2-release from the usual site at CMU and that
includes the kal16 voice.  I'm under the impression one could hook in
the new Cepstral voices into flite as well; not sure though.
